God bless, Cpl. Joshua Boston of the US Marine Corps!

I think it is hypocritical of anyone denouncing exactly what they, themselves, possess. This marine sure spoke for a lot of people when he sent this letter to Dianne Feinstein. She carries a concealed weapon and has a licence to do so. Why does she deserve what she would like to take away from others?

The following letter, written by U.S. Marine Joshua Boston and headlined “No ma’am.,” was posted in the CNN iReport on Dec. 27 with the included note from the producer and photo. It has struck a nerve with many and is being circulated around social media venues like Twitter and Facebook.

Senator Dianne Feinstein,
I will not register my weapons should this bill be passed, as I do not believe it is the government’s right to know what I own. Nor do I think it prudent to tell you what I own so that it may be taken from me by a group of people who enjoy armed protection yet decry me having the same a crime.

You ma’am have overstepped a line that is not your domain. I am a Marine Corps Veteran of 8 years, and I will not have some woman who proclaims the evil of an inanimate object, yet carries one, tell me I may not have one.

I am not your subject. I am the man who keeps you free. I am not your servant. I am the person whom you serve. I am not your peasant. I am the flesh and blood of America.

I am the man who fought for my country. I am the man who learned. I am an American. You will not tell me that I must register my semi-automatic AR-15 because of the actions of some evil man.

I will not be disarmed to suit the fear that has been established by the media and your misinformation campaign against the American public.

We, the people, deserve better than you.

Respectfully Submitted,
Joshua Boston

Ten Big 'Killers' in the United States

 Interesting to note that while the noise in government these days is to ban guns because they are supposedly a major cause of death and injury in the United States, actual statistics seem to indicate an entirely different story.

Tobacco Use

529,000

Medical Errors

155,000

Unintentional Injuries

118,00

Alcohol Abuse

107,400

Motor Vehicle Accidents

34,435

Unintentional Poisoning

31,750

Drug Abuse

25,500

Unintentional Falls

24,790

*Non-Firearm Homicides

16,790

Firearm Homicides

11,490

*According to the FBI, the #1 weapon used in violent crimes . . . is a baseball bat.

Given the thinking/reasoning about proposed legislation regarding gun control, shouldn't baseball bats be considered, too? Also heard that a lot of baseball bats are sold in the UK which has strict gun control. They play that much baseball there? We don't need a nanny state. No matter what gets banned, people intent on evil will find a way.

Cookie Baking in Comic Form?

 My daughter seems to have encompassed my slight baking addiction in her recent comic. She has grown to be an expert at catching mood and expression in her comics so no one is ever quite safe from her pens, markers, and computer.
